Located on the northern end of Mustang Island, Port Aransas is a quiet fishing village famous for deep-sea and other forms of sport and recreational fishing. But fishing is only one of the reasons that couples, families and small groups visit Port Aransas. Eighteen miles of beautiful beach is the perfect getaway for those who enjoy fresh clean air, the soothing sound of rolling waves, and the warmth of the sun.

The Pelican is the perfect retreat for those who want to escape to this relaxing island. With a choice of two, three and four-bedroom ocean view apartments, or a large (26 guest) beach house with a private walkway to the beach, The Pelican offers carefree accommodations for any size family or group.

Fisherman will enjoy the wide variety of fishing in Port Aransas. The adventurous sportsman will thrive on deep-sea, bay and channel fishing, while others can try their hand at jetty, surf and pier fishing. Half-day and full-day fishing trips are available at docks just minutes away, and a handy fish cleaning house is located on our premises.

Nature lovers will delight in combing the beaches for unusual shells, or simply strolling miles of uncluttered beaches, enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. Swimmers and sun lovers can frolic in the ocean waves or relax around the pool in beach chairs and shaded cabanas.
